Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Mary she was a good old soul Never held a grudge, always let it go She saw the good in every evil The best I know Mary took each day with integrity She said goodness us, never goodness me But people all over the world Forgot about Mary Now Mary gave more than she ever took She could read a man like an open book But never to judge, only to let him grow Thought less was more, she was never bored Could find the only treasure At the discount store But people all over the world They forgot about Mary Mary got rich without fortune or fame She would barter for good 'til she'd end up paid When she got taxed, she'd hit the penny arcade 'til dawn She'd play and play 'til her luck did come She could've hit the strip, spent it one by one But she split the pot with the joker and his son Because people all over the world Forgot about Mary When it all shook down at the end of the day And became too much for old Mary to save She tipped her hat and set off on her merry way They all looked and looked for one of Mary's kind But a soul like that is so hard to find In that gesture, Mary found peace of mind Now Mary stays, as the story goes Beneath the winds, but always close So people all over the world Don't forget her name But it's not her name, or her long lost art It's the kindness inside people's hearts That Mary knows will come back around someday
